It is with a heavy heart that we announce the loss of one of our most beloved members, Daytonite.

Daytonite was instrumental in working with the nursing students here at allnurses.com. She was always there for them as well as the seasoned nurse. Her love, however, was teaching those in a nursing program by leading and guiding them here at allnurses.com.

Daytonite had been ill for a while; more seriously in the past 8 months. She passed away on April 8th, 2010.

Our sincere sympathy to the family of Daytonite. If anyone would like to place a condolence, here is the online obituary: JOYCE WAGNER Obituary: View JOYCE WAGNER's Obituary by The Plain Dealer. We think her family would be very touched reading the comments from our allnurses family.

Our fellow colleague...

A nurse above all...

I can't believe this. :( Daytonite was always so helpful to nursing students and giving so much of her time to help us understand things better. I have seen many of her threads where she explained things in depth and have benefited from them. My condolences to her family. We will surely miss her presence on Allnurses.com.

I am so sorry to hear this. I remember reading her posts when I first visited this site and being so amazed by the detail and effort she took to give excellent advice and help to all the nursing students on here. I am sad she will not be there to provide her excellent input while I'm in nursing school, and more importantly, I'm so sad for the loss her loved ones have to endure. May she rest in peace. :saint:

Just last night, as I was working on my care plan, I decided to come to Allnurses to see what Daytonite had to say about my question. I was blown away by the news of her passing, and will surely miss her thoughtful, informative and helpful posts. May she rest in peace!
